People who don't know the Rules

First off, I rarely send any kind of CCG tips because I don't have the time for them but I'm willing to make this execption. My tip regards the resent number of people who don't know the rules on many of the cards, and in particular the rules of the following cards:

1. Scapegoat-People dont seem to be able to read this card so well because if they did they would see the card clearly says that you cant preform any summon, of any kind, FOR THE REST OF THE TURN. What that means is you cannot, and I do mean cannot, summon a monster and then play scapegoat. This means that that Cannon Soldier/Amazon Archer in your hand can't be played until the next turn. This rules is there for one reason and that is people who may have have 3 scapegoats in there hand and one Amazon Archer on the First Turn. If my calculations are correct then that means that in there first turn without you have a chance to react they would win. That would be unfair and so that why you can't summon and then play scapegoat.

2. Swords of Revealing Light-This card is an annoying one and often used wrongly. First off if you destroy Swords with Heavy Storm, MST, etc. its gone for good and the rest of the turn, but if you bouce it back to an opponents hand then it's NOT gone. This rule was addressed by upperdeck on their official website and if you doubt me then please look it up. Also Imperial Order cannot negate Swords and then restart it, Swords still keeps it's count down going.

3. Imperial Order- It can be chained by MST, but it cant destory magic cards. This means that Swords, Equip cards, or Continous Magic Cards are not destoryed rather turned into a blank card and not put into play.

There are more cards that probably need more specific rule clarification but those are really the only ones that really do drive a steak thourgh my heart when they are not used right. If I feel the need to give more rule clarifications I will. Oh and dont speak about cards and how to use them if you don't know. Look them up and prove that you are right. Assumption is always bad.
